From the brewer

Our Big Eye IPA is a big hoppy brew, thanks to the abundance of American Columbus and Centennial varieties we use to flavor and dry hop. While the English originally added extra hops to preserve their beers for sea travel, we do it for the love of all that bold, intense flavor that makes India Pale Ale one of our favorite styles.

Great example of this style. Hop flavors perfectly balanced with malt. Not overly piney, resinous or fruity (honestly I just thought this was a really well done Pale Ale). A great beer, easy to drink and would certainly serve it to craft beer newcomers.
